Top 3 Reasons You're Not Seeing Progress With Your Diet
1. You're not looking for it! The scale is just ONE metric to monitor progress... make sure to monitor things like energy, sleep, workout performance, body fat percentage, clothes and hormones as means to seeing your progress!
2. If it's taken you months upon years to land you where you are at today, it's going to take longer than a 30 day quick fix or 6 week challenge to get you the results you want. You haven't been doing it long enough.
3. Imagine budgeting $700 to spend each week and Monday-Friday you spend $100/day but Saturday and Sunday you spend $300/day. The math doesn't line up! WEEKENDS COUNT!

So often, dieters get hung up in too much structure, leaving them burnt out too soon to "fall off the bandwagon" or "throw in the towel" before goals are met! Too much flexibility often leads to lackluster body composition or unhealthy if-it-fits-your-macros type of dieting.
Your diet should be on a continual continuum of 'structure' and 'flexibility.' And Flexible Dieting has paved the way for 'Structured Flexibility', kicking the this OR that to the curb to allow for this AND that. Depending on your starting point, your goals, your timeline and lifestyle... the ratio of structure and flexibility will be determined.
Three things to consider before determining your level of Structured Flexibility...
Your Schedule - Holidays, vacations, busy work seasons may required more flexibility which require you to alter your timeline of when Structure can take the front seat. Be okay with needing more flexibility through these times... but also be okay with the outcome. Plan Ahead - If you're in a season of higher structure dieting, plan ahead if you have an event or meal that requires more flexibility. Night out with friends coming up? Pre-track a cocktail or dessert or estimated meal out, opt for a high volume breakfast and/or lunch, increase your NEAT and water intake for the day. Simplify - Stop making it harder on yourself. Simplify your meal choices to make meeting your current needs easier; especially if you're in a season of higher structure.Take a listen to deepen your understanding of 'Structured Flexibility' within your diet.

How to be happy forever?
Be ready to change your mindset and behavior.
Doesnât sound like the start of a nutrition podcast, does it?
Whether youâre a nutrition coach in Turkey like Sinan, or The US, like us⊠sustainable results around dieting first come from the clients mindset, then their behavior.
Having grown up in such a diverse cuisine in Istanbul, Turkey, not only did Sinan take priority in expanding his culinary skills at a young age, but also had a strong interest in the education behind nutrition, health, and wellness.
Sinan is a Registered Dietitian by practice with a masterâs in Applied Clinical Nutrition from New York Chiropractic College and a second masterâs in Professional Studies in Nutrition from Penn State University.
Regardless of the client, his biggest priority is keeping a smile on their face, throughout their entire journey. He believes 'that a smile goes far beyond just in-between the ears and rather strongly impacts how individualsâ function, think, behave, and impact those around them.'
After recording this episode on Cultural Cuisine, we can attest that his personal goal to make others just as passionate about what they buy, eat, and put in their body, as he is, is certainly coming to fruition!
